PEG is for You
It was decided by the members at the May 20, 2004 meeting of the Parent Exploratory Group (PEG) not to set a specific date for the next PEG meeting. This was partly in response to the request by John Borland for some assistance with organizing PEG activities so that he can devote more time to his family. But this decision generated with regard to PEG scheduling was also a recognition by the members as to the very nature of the Parent Exploratory Group.

The Parent Exploratory Group greatly values and is completely for those who come to it, use it and value it. Each recipient of the PEG meeting summaries and every visitor to the Affective Skills Web Site who accesses the summaries is considered a part of PEG, can come to know PEG activities via the summaries and has an open and equal opportunity to aid in steering PEG's direction.

It was, therefore, decided by the assembeled members that the setting of future PEG meetings and activities should be conducted in this light.

At any time, any member or person interested in PEG can propose a meeting or other activity to be held. Simply e-mail John Borland at AffectiveSkill@aol.com to register your request. John will then contact our member base to see if there is an interest in the proposal. If sufficient interest is generated John will coordinate arrangement of a PEG activity around the request.

Also, from time to time, John, via e-mail, will query our members more generally to ask if and when a meeting or other activity of PEG is desired. You need only respond to the message to register your feelings and desires for arrangements. According to the majority interest and desired logistics forthcoming (time, date, location, topic, event, etc.) the agreed-upon PEG function will be arranged.

The Parent Exploratory Group is and always has been your group. This decision by the group and this notice reiterates that intention and marks your continuing opportunity to make PEG what you wish it to be.
